Counter strike 1.6 freeze on vista

I start CS, the menu comes, I choose the server, Steam connect loads everything, then comes the information page of the server (once the game is loaded) with an OK button down and the game froze to the bottom. I tried it in XP compatibility mode, but it froze again. I don't know what could be the problem because this game ran on my XP so nice, but now on Vista it crashes. How to solve this problem please help me!

run in compatibility mode by right-clicking, and then clicking Properties and then running in compatibility mode for xp SP2

  • Counter-strike errors - Satellite A100

    Hey there!

    I play counter strike frequently, it works fine on XP, but since I bought this laptop (A100-062), the game will jam to halfway through a turn, and the only way to fix it is completely restart the PC (such as Notepad integer jams).

    I tried the driver patch Intel, no luck. But could it be also related to this issue?

    When that I disconnect, it disconnects me, the screen flashes black for a few seconds and then again by saying "Please wait", why do these black screens occur?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Strike cs is designed for Windows XP Home or Vista edition? Have you checked system requirements?

    I found the tracking info:
    Minimum configuration: processor 1.2 GHz, 256 MB RAM, DirectX 7, graphics card, Windows 2000/XP, mouse, keyboard, Internet connection

    Recommended: 2.4 GHz processor, 512 MB of RAM, card graph DirectX 9, Windows 2000/XP, mouse, keyboard, Internet connection

    All display flashing I can't say for sure, but I suspect there may be pass control of hardware operating system control hardware BIOS or backward. I'm really interested to hear what other more experienced users can say about it.

    Bye and try to get Vista Games and test it on your laptop.

  • I want to install windows os(not genuine) in the mac, I use mac air beginning 15, 4 GB of ram, 128ssd.     I want to play counter strike (overall offensive) in the windows operating system.     is 4 GB of ram enough or it takes 8 GB of ram.

    in fact, I want to install windows os (not authentic) because I'm fond of counter strike

    so, mac support this game?

    or it takes 8 GB ram to play counter strike?

    operating system windows (not authentic) will cause no effect on mac?

    If I install the windows on mac operating system, I will award 58 GB in the windows operating system and remains to mac, goes no problem in the future, due to the windows operating system?

    ALSO POINT OUT THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF INSTALLING WINDOWS ON A MAC.

    operating system Windows (not authentic)

    This means that you ask for assistance on the use of a pirate copy of Windows?

    If you install Windows, you have the advantage of being able to run Windows and the inconvenience of having to deal with all the viruses and stuff for which Windows systems are prone.

    Why not just buy the Mac version? It seems relatively inexpensive: http://store.steampowered.com/app/730/

  • Satellite A300-15 b - graphic problem Counter Strike game

    Hello

    Personally, I don't play game at all. About your problem, maybe you need to install x 11 Direct:

  • Can I play games like Counter strike on Satellite L300d-11V

    Hello

    My Satellite L300D-11-v can play games like counter strike source?
    I installed, but they are unplayable.

    Any help please?
    U can change graphics shared in the Bios?

    Hello!

    I think that a Satellite L300 is not the laptop to play new games like Counter Strike Source. The Qosmio series is perfect for play.

    You have the latest graphics driver? Do not play on the higher quality settings, set it to medium or low.

    And if you buy a computer game on the back of the packaging are the required configuration. So that you can see if it s able to play (good) on your laptop.

    Bye!

  • Satellite M70-144: can not play Counter strike because of the old graphics driver

    I currently receive assistance from the Steam support with one of my games, counter-strike: Source and support told me that I had exceeded the video drivers.
    Where can I update my video drivers, or new install? And if I have to install new, do I need some kind of driver removal tool?

    And how to uninstall the old drivers? Should I uninstall the old drivers before installing new?

    Help please! : D

    Hello

    I installed a graphics card drivers on 3rd party Web site; + www.omegadrivers.net+
    It helped launch the counter strike on my laptop.

    But note; These drivers are not tested on the Toshiba laptop and you can install it at your own risk. I mean there is no guarantee that the laptop will run stable after installing all 3rd party drivers.

    Good luck

    Hi Purple3rkel,

    -You are able to install other programs outside strike cs?

    First of all, check if the windows service install is set to automatic and started. To do this follow the steps below:

    1. Click Start.
    2. In the start search box type services.msc and press enter
    3. In the services window, do scroll down to Windows install.
    4. Right-click on it and click Properties.
    5. Check if the startup type is set to automatic, otherwise it is set to automatic.
    6. Click the Start button, this will start the installation of windows services.
    7. Click on apply and Ok.

    Check if you can install Counter Strike on the computer.

    If it fails after following the steps above, you can try to access the counter strike CD and try to do a right-click on the installation and configuration icon and select run as administrator and check if it helps you install the game with any questions.

    If the problem persists, open Event Viewer and check if there are other important messages/error codes generated during the time where the installation failed and post it back.

    See the link below for more details:

    What are the information contained in the logs of the event (Event Viewer)?

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    a. He worked before on your computer?

    The most common cause of this problem is damaged or outdated video card drivers. Please make sure that your video card drivers are up to date.

    someone at - it an idea on how I can get counter strike so quickly on my pc and not so fragmentary and lag., is the first person shooting game and not looking to spend money?  someone help me please! and thank you!

    # You have not given any information, except for what you are trying to run.

    As far we know you run with some processors Sempron/Celeron and 512 MB shared memory with an on-board video camera.  In addition, you might have a suite of protection oversized running on your system to keep you safe from Internet predators and a bunch of other things you love continues to run in the background.

    Here again, you can have a dual core or higher processor 1.8 GHz or more fast speed with 1 GB or more of memory and a 512 MB or higher video card (do not share memory with the system) which has installed the most recent drivers.  Also you can have only a basic product antivirus running, by using the built-in Windows Firewall and you want to keep your system with as little as possible run so that most of your resources are available.

    Probable - in any case - other than generalities such as:

    (1) make sure that few runs when you play the game (with the exception of the game) as possible.
    (2) make sure that you have the latest video card driver installed for your video card.
    (3) make sure that you have the latest driver installed for your motherboard chipset.
    (4) make sure that you have the latest audio driver installed for the audio device.
    (5) make sure that you have the latest network driver installed on your device on the network.
    (6) run the game with its smaller settings with the same extras disabled as you can stand it.  Shadows are nice - but will slow down your system.

    And the advice that you said that you do not want to (while remaining general because we do not know the details of your system):

    (1) buy a more grand/more fast video card to replace yours.
    (2) buy more memory system in case you run low during playback.
    (3) replace your processor with the highest that will take care of your particular motherboard.

    And the most extreme:

    (1) buy a system that has a little above the minimum specs for the best interpretation of this game is that you are trying to play.

    Hi Louie,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    There is no information about this game with Windows 7 compatibility, in the Compatibility Center.

    Since then, he has worked fine before, I would have you uninstall and reinstall the game in Compatibility Mode to check if that helps.

    I suggest you uninstall the game and then install it in Windows 7 compatibility mode.

    Step 1:

    Follow these steps to uninstall the game.

    a. press the Windows key + X , and then select Control Panel.

    b. Select uninstall a program

    c. Select Counter Strike 6 in the list and choose Uninstall.

    Step 2:

    Follow the steps to install in compatibility mode:

    a. setting up the file right click and select Properties and then tap or click on the compatibility tab.

    b. check the box run this program in compatibility modof e.

    c. press or click the menu drop down and select a previous operating system, and then tap or click OK.

    Reference:

    Make the programs more compatible with this version of Windows

    Also, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of the game and check. Here is the link for your reference.

    Sorry for my bad English?

    It's an unusual problem and not something I've seen, but if it doesn't happen with CS 1.6 I think that Steam forums can be a better place to ask your question, because the game is a game of Valve/Steam.
